About this artwork
Distortion 2 is an original painting by Amy Devlin. My process starts with taking the photographs I work from, I like to experiment with angles and light in the photographing and really liked the distorted vision from under the water looking up. Every inch of the canvas has multiple layers on to build up the feeling of light, water and body, every layer focusing in on more detail until there is a balance of tight detail and watery fluidity. This…
painting was all about the light in different forms, the bright sunlight, the reflections on skin, the way you can recognise the figure through the distorted water.
Born and raised in New Zealand, Amy Devlin has lived in the UK for 20 years, first in London, then since 2015 in rural Kent.
Amy’s current body of work focuses on bodies in water and bodies of water. “I love the exploration, chasing the physical memory of being underwater. That tranquil feeling of the sun on your body even through the water.

« I love exploration, chasing the physical memory of being underwater. That tranquil feeling of the sun on your body, even through the water, being at one but also entirely separate. »
Amy Devlin's artistic process begins with taking photographs, where she experiments with angles and light, examining the distortion created above and below the waterline. The New Zealand born artist, who currently resides in the United Kingdom, does not intend to create photorealist paintings. Instead, she focuses on the fluidity of her subject and prefers the texture of paint, through which she can add other dimensions of depth to the image.
